Bisboch was maybe one of two folks that remembered playing Planet Probe back in mid 1980s

He mentioned starting with asking if anyone played Planet Probe, and spread the word about the game around to different places including getting Planet Probe name on unMAMEd until Planet Probe was emulated. Bisboch had a couple pages created including his own recreated tune as best he recalled the top ten medley tune in which Bisboch recreated tune almost matched the actual Planet Probe top ten medley tune.

He spent the effort in searching for Planet Probe and fortunately things worked out his way. If anything, I am more surprised that a flyer actually was printed for marketing the game. For a limited run of the game, maybe possible for advertising flyers to be printed, but even some of the more wider release and better known games didn’t have advertising flyers printed. That is why the Planet Probe flyer was a surprise to me.
